It can have however many x intercepts it wants,
<span>BUT, to be a function it must pass the vertical line test. </span>
<span>this means you have to look at the graph and see if a vertical line drawn anywhere hits the graph more than once. </span>
<span>if it hits it more than once, it is NOT a function.
</span>
An example is a polynomial function to the infinite degree. That is
f(x) = lim (n --> infinity) [ x^n]
but only 1 y intercept (vertical line test remember)
0.55 is equal to 55/100, and by dividing the numerator and denominator by 5, we get 11/20. Hope this helps!
You take 187 away from 2431
